Hey guys. Had my trung repainted due to some scratches while my car was at the body shop from the minor fender-bender I had last week. Had them spray the trunk lid & that lame silver strip at the bottom of it while they were at it. (The strip made an amazing difference too, btw. I never liked that thing, and now that it matches the black of the rest of the car it looks great!)

Now I need to re-apply a brand new 'Rings' logo on my trunk. I need someone to measure out proper placement for me so I can get it to oem placement. Left to right I can handle, its up to bottom I need you guys to help out. I was thinking to use the license plate trim plastic as a guide. the part with the rear fogs, etc.

So lets use where the trunk begins above that plastic insert as a reference point. How far up from there is the bottom of the rings?

Thanks fellas!!

Ok, disregard my reply on AW. I'll measure in the morning, if it's not 490 degrees in my garage.

I measured it our on my car, and it's 3-1/4 inches from the underside of the top of the license plate housing to the bottom of the rings. I don't have a decent picture of the back end of mine, so I used this one instead. (If I'm not mistaken, the rings on the RS6 are crooked, just like my picture)

Thanks for the help man. Will use both measures for reference to be sure. And I am prob going to take a nice pic of both of my cars for my sig once I clean the Z. Has a ton of brake dust on it right now from some 'spirited driving' earlier this week... Ceramic brakes make a mess....
